The best way to deal with high cost of material as a business so you don't make loss, but reasonable gain. You should know your current costs. You need to know what your direct costs are as well as any indirect costs associated with them. The following are examples of common indirect costs:

Materials and supplies: These include everything from screws and bolts to paper clips and staples.

Labor: This includes both your employees' salaries and the cost of their benefits package (e.g., health insurance).

Overhead: This includes such things as rent, utilities, advertising, office expenses and depreciation on equipment.

The key thing about indirect costs is that they can often be reduced by eliminating one or more of the above items. For instance, if you have three people working on your project compared to just one, then you will save money by hiring more people at lower salaries rather than paying for more expensive contractors who do the same work (e.g., 3 guys vs 1 guy). You'll also want to look at how much money you lose when something breaks down or breaks down unexpectedly because it was not properly maintained or repaired in the first place. Also buy in bulk and use alternative materials or methods (such as recycling) that are more affordable than those used in traditional manufacturing.

Majority of manufacturing companies and businesses are presently dealing with the problem of increased cost of raw materials for production of goods and services and making them available to wholesalers and retailers in order to meet the needs and wants of the final consumers. In a case where a cost of production or cost of acquiring raw materials for production is totally on the high rate, it is definitely the right time for each and every manufacturing business manager or owner to carry out a feasibility directive or study on which products or services tends to reach the needs and wants of members of the public or on which product or services is more purchased or buyable by members of the public, in this way the business organisation or manufacturing company tends to allocate available business resources to the production of these purchasable and buyable goods and services by clients and customers.

Increase cost of raw materials for production is absolutely caused by so many factors but one of the commonest factors causing the problem of increased cost of production is economic problems such as inflation and recession etc

There's no two ways about this, the cost of production will always fluctuate but mostly it will always go up and the manufacturer must know about this. manufacturing business manager or owner will have to carry out a feasibility study on where they know they can get the raw materials cheaper.

if you have a permanent suppliers and their supplies is becoming very expensive it might just be time for you to check out another supplier to be sure that you are not being cheated

The cost of raw materials shouldn't make people to production substandard products instead you should produce and sell it high too.

When you noticed that the high cost of materials that you use in your business is becoming too much then you have no choice but to increase your services cost as well. Imagine someone that is doing catering business and after buying all the necessary material she needs she discovers that there is no gain left in it for her. She has no choice but to hike the price of our services and products as well. So that is how to handle this kind of situation, when you see that you are about to experience loss that you just increase your own price as well.
